"Julie is, without a doubt, the most exceptional recruiter I've ever worked with, and an even better person. As a leader of high-growth engineering teams, I've been in situations where I need to immediately find some unicorn that's going to help get us to the next level. Julie has an uncanny ability to know under which rainbows to look and how to thoroughly assess the technical chops and teamwork capabilities. But what truly sets Julie apart, is the lasting impact of her placements. These individuals not only tend to stay with the company long-term but also significantly enrich our company culture and reinforce our values. The ability to find people who are not just skilled but culturally aligned is priceless. It's this combination of efficiency, insight, and long-term thinking that makes Julie and Nerdup truly outstanding. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to any organization looking to build strong, cohesive, and talented teams."

"Julie and Nerd Up bring a level of passion and creativity to staffing and recruitment that’s unmatched by other recruiters. The genuine commitment and personal interest make them truly stand out. The success of their matches speaks for itself. I would use them over and over again for every important role. And let’s be honest: if you care about your business, every role is important."

"Big shoutout to Nerd Up for helping us find our superstar! From the first conversation to the final hire, Julie made the whole process feel like a breeze. She didn’t just find us an employee –she found us the one! We couldn’t be happier with the awesome talent she brought to the table. If you're looking to hire someone who fits in and stands out, Nerd Up is your secret weapon. 10/10 would hire again (and again)!"

"I've worked with Julie for nearly 15 years thinking through and acting strategically to fill a variety of mission-critical positions in IT, sales, account management, marketing, and HR. Julie is interested in the long-term fit and the success of her clients, on both sides of the table. You’ll learn that Julie not only gets to know your company's culture and “people fit” but asks incisive questions that other recruiters don’t even contemplate. She also protects your Inbox and only sends candidates with a very high likelihood of being that rare fit you were hoping to find. Julie has partnered with me successfully at every stage of our company’s growth, from start-up through M&A last year. I’ve yet to find a headhunter or staffing partner who shows up as committed and who follows through with the kind of tenacity and success that she does. If you “Nerd Up” your company, your life will be a lot easier—especially on the staffing front, short and long term!"

"We have the highest standards and Julie became THE RECRUITER for us. She was able to fi nd people with excellent technical skills as well as a great match for our fast pace and innovative culture. She listened, anticipated, and provided us with great information on the current job market so we were able to better plan our hiring projections. Julie is responsive, professional, and at times, a miracle worker. She is everything you would want in a recruiter."

"Julie is truly a nerd-in-chief as she can relate to her customers, clients and candidates on their level. She is a recruiting professional that takes our craft very seriously but not too seriously that she can't make you laugh just when you need it. She is a great blend of recruiter, sales person, relationship manager, account manager - not too much or too little of any of these. This makes Julie a pleasure to work with and network with. I look forward to her continued success as an entrepreneur and make this recommendation without ANY reservations. Go Julie!!!!"

"Nerd Up is one of the best-kept secrets in tech recruiting. Julie is a phenomenal talent sourcer and dream-job-matchmaker who will not only help you hire the best people for your company, but will make sure that the incredible humans she's matching also are jumping-for-joy for the next big step in their careers. I've worked with Julie both as a hiring manager and as a candidate, and highly recommend Nerd Up!"
